Modge Podged Pumpkin Project

I have decided that instead of cutting my pumpkin I am going to Modge Podge him. I have got some gorgeous napkins and cannot wait to get started. I modge podge all the time and nothing is sacred. I will attempt to modge podge just about anything. Want to try? Well it is really easy and can turn a plain jane thing into something special. I thought I would share some with you before giving you the directions.

Like what you see? I hope so because here are the instructions and let me tell you it is so easy. I have done clear plates and platters, frames, a chair, you name it.
Instructions

You can modge podge anything....but for this adventure we are using a pumpkin. You can use a real one or artificial one. Next you gather tissue paper, lightweight fabric, napkins, several paintbrushes, and a container of Mod Podge or watered-down white glue. Working on a protected surface, simply tear the tissue into squares or strips and paste them in place. We found that double layers of tissue produced the boldest colors, and a topcoat of Mod Podge gave the finish durability. Let it dry completely and voila! I hope you have fun if you try it. It is a great destresser.

Who Am I? I Wonder Myself Sometimes

I am a woman who wears many hats and loves them all. I am a singer - I sing with the group Still Magnolias. I was part of the original First United Methodist Church Arbor Praise Team until we moved. After 24+ years of teaching English 11 and Spanish I - II at Benjamin Russell High School I decided to take a job closer to home. I now teach Spanish I & 2 at Randolph Co. High School and Wadley. I thought I was getting close to retirement and looking forward to it, but decided to move my cheese and try something different. I am a preacher's wife and a preacher myself. My husband Frank is the pastor at Rock Mills United Methodist Church and I am the pastor at Midway (Wedowee). It has made our conversations interesting, to say the least.
